About us


Buy Well.  Manage Well.   Sell well.  If you can do that, let me be the Engineer on The Wealth Train: The accumulation of generational wealth through clever and legal use of the Tax Code.    You can't do it alone, and you can't do it if you only think about taxes on April 15.  Not going to happen.

Start thinking about Future Value, and how each property is a freight car, with a wagonload of Deferred Gains [taxes NOT paid],  Unallowed Losses [to be used in the future.  Don't think of them as Losses.  They have value], and Appreciation.  Also on that Wealth Train are wagons with Worthless Securities,  Abandoned Securities as well as Non-Business Bad Debt [loans to "friends" that remain uncollected].  These have a future value.

Form tax return prep to setting up the Wealth Train, this is not available to price shoppers.   As  they say, "You get what you pay for".    

But if you are serious about creating generational wealth, let's talk.  I love to talk. . .Free consult and my exhaustive checklist for Short Term Rentals.   Let's schedule an appointment.

We found ourselves facing an unexpected tax situation that felt overwhelming. We were worried about the potential consequences and didn't know where to turn. That's when we contacted Bruce Kowal. From our first meeting, we felt reassured by his knowledge and confidence. What impressed us most was how he translated complex tax matters into terms we could understand. Bruce Kowal developed a strategic approach that protected our interests and achieved an outcome far better than we imagined possible. As a result, Bruce saved us upwards of $50,000 and got all penalties abated. The peace of mind we've gained is truly priceless. We can now focus on our business and family without this hanging over us. For anyone experiencing tax-related challenges, we offer our highest recommendation for Bruce Kowal’s services.

I reached out to Bruce after speaking with several other agencies that were no help at all. I unfortunately had waited until about two weeks prior to my filing deadline, so we were definitely on a time crunch.. Bruce was amazing. He stepped up and worked quickly. I’m thankful I found him. He did an amazing job on my taxes, getting me more money back than I thought was possible! I’m super thankful I found him and you can believe I will be using him going forward. Thanks Bruce!

After trying multiple tax resolution companies and getting nowhere and wasting thousands of dollar paying people to do nothing I met Bruce and he got it done from start to finish. Didn’t have to chase him at all . Got my passport back and now I’m back on track with the IRS. Definitely recommend Bruce.

Bruce provided exceptional service and abundance of knowledge with helping me file my taxes. I was behind on my prior 2 years of tax filing and Bruce reassured me and walked me though every step of the way to ensure that i got the maximum return while keeping in mind my goals. He was able to guide me to ensure I would be able to qualify to purchase another home and continue to reach my goals. Thank you so much for relieving me of my stress and assisting me with my tax filings.
